Faldo zings Rickie
- Edited
He has won about $450,000 this year golfing and
he gets 9 to 10 million a year in endorsements/commercials.
I could get by on that - maybe.
Like Harmon said, "βyou wanted be a golfer or a Kardashian"

"Oh Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz ...:"
We all can talk...visualize ... and think, but to be what we criticize don't we first have to walk?
I prefer to like ALL attempts, especially at the toughest game ever invented.
That is why I play the game.

Sarnella He has won about $450,000 this year golfing and

But, did these guys become golfers at that very young age, hoping to be good enough when they get older to turn Pro and get huge endorsements? Or did they learn the game, suffer along the way, working their asses off, to become the best player ever? Right now, RF is just another (overhyped from the beginning)golfer that has won a few(very few) tournaments, much like many on tour.
When the game goes to hell, so will the off course money. Then what?....has been????(but filthy, stinking rich, of course)
Sir Faldo walked back his criticism and offered an apology of sorts. I'm thinking Nickie found out the golf community at large wasn't amused and Rickie Fowler has more fans 'out there' than he does...

Lose the dorky hat and porn star 'stache, do something about the unibrow and dress more conservative. Do it, and you will win.
Rickie is killin it... Multimillionaire... Has a killer wife..
I am sure he gives Zero Effes about Sir Nick or his opinion.
He is probably more worried about Tiger...

For a while, I'm going to cut RF some slack. I should have known from his horrible play there was more to it than marriage. A swing change; that phrase makes me cringe when I hear of top players doing it. Has been the ruin of several. Both sides of the nickel.
Typhoon pellmell Could Fowler's clubs, specifically his butter knifes, explain his deficient performance
YES!!!!
A couple weeks ago before any of the Faldo shit, I was thinking about Fowler because some friends were buying Cobra stuff. I looked into his stats and saw his SG off the tee and around the green were great but his iron play was awful. FIRST thing I said to myself was " stop playing those pretty looking blades". More than half the tour is either using a split set of some kind or a players cavity back like the Ping i210. How can he be that dumb... the worst part of your game, the hardest clubs made to hit
Well... if Ricky had asked me a month or so ago...
